Hello Yasuo, why invent the wheel again? SRM already supports something like this. As soon as 4.2 is released I'm going to work on it again. Derick

I like SRM/msession :) I just need _very_ fast solution for static data that can be persistent at local machine. SRM/msession does great job for sharing data between servers, but it still needs a lot more overheads compare to module that I'm willing to write. With the module, virtually 0 overhead is required to initilize array for static data like large menu definition. I might be missing something, please let me know if I do. -- Yasuo Ohgaki

It sounds like a lot of work is expected for msession. So, I'll write a simple one. [RFC for New Module] Module name: psv (Persistent Server Variable) Feature: Maintain auto global $_PERSISTENT array that persists on single server. Function: none. Implementtion: Shared memory (libmm) for multi-process server. Multi-thread server uses global with lock/unlock. Usage: <?php if (!isset($_PERSISTENT['VAR'])) { include('register_very_large_array.inc'); } ?> If you have any comments, especially if you have good names, please let me know. I probably write this module on this or next weekend. -- Yasuo Ohgaki -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
